about

"Ho Chi Minh" is an amalgamation of sampling, resampling, and re-amping that builds into an almost dreamlike cacophony of sounds.

lyrics

I'm swimming down the drain pipes in Ho Chi Minh
chased by projections of dangerous men.
My subconscious wants me home.

I've seldom seen my face since I've been erased.
Running through a newsroom on broken legs.
The cameras all cut to bones.

A kick ends my dream-job in Ho Chi Minh.
Awake but I still think I'm a hologram.
When the train stops, I'm getting off.
A sailor's anchor in mid-drop.
As quickly found, as quickly lost.
Natural or digital specs of dust?

I'm sitting on my skateboard in Wenzhou
watching the sunset dive down below
a mountain. Just like home.

Street lights come on. It's so obvious
like I had asked a genie to waste a wish
on something inside a phone,
on something I've had all along,
on something I take in my soul
anywhere around the globe.

I'm home.
I'm already home.
I'm home.
I'm always home.
